Youth Development Trials running this summer

Trials for aspiring young footballers to join Cambridge United's Youth Development teams take place throughout the Summer...

Players aged U7s-U16s, including outfield boys, girls and goalkeepers are coming up soon as six weeks of trials are about to get underway across the region.

Successful trialists will join the Club's Youth Development programme, which is the first step of our Academy pathway.

The programme aims to provide each player with the tools to thrive within our environment and has a demonstrated history of supporting its players throughout their journey to become the best version of themselves, both on-and-off the pitch. 

Some stand-out examples of players who have progressed through this route to play First Team football are Harry Darling - now of Swansea City - and Serena Cobb, who plays for Cambridge United Women.

Please view trial locations - and specific dates for each venue - below:

  • Boys: Bedford, Comberton, Hinchingbrooke, Linton, Long Road Sports Ground, Mildenhall
  • Girls: Comberton, Linton, Long Road Sports Ground, Swavesey
  • Goalkeepers: Bedford, Comberton, Hinchingbrooke, Linton, Long Roads Sports Ground

Trials run up until the end of July - to view all the locations and dates for each respective age group, and to book on, please click here.
